As a result of these discussions, working groups will come together from across the organizations to address issues and discuss solutions.

Community members who were unable to attend will be able to access transcripts from the session after October 21, 2013, at www.justice.gov.nt.ca and www.yellowknife.ca. Further comments and suggestions for potential solutions can also be made at the links.

The organizations involved agreed to come together with the public to meet and hold further conversations about progress made in the new year.
